'Poppy Cottage, ' set in the ever popular village of Tilshead, is an enchanting 3 bedroom detached period home packed with character, and with delightful established gardens.
This charming cottage has a blend of thatch and tiled rooves and is believed to date back to the 1800s. It is located in a Conservation Area on the edge of the village and backs onto open countryside, providing fabulous walks right on doorstep onto the surrounding Salisbury Plain.
Internally, an entrance porch opens into a 20'11" open plan kitchen/dining room with an excellent range of fitted contemporary units with granite effect worktops, a Belfast sink and space for a 'Range' style cooker. There is also a log burning stove. A sliding door leads through to an equally spacious sitting room with exposed beams and a further inviting log burner with exposed brick chimney breast. Set off the sitting room is a snug/study with French doors out to the gardens. On the first floor, a refitted light and bright shower room is complemented by three bedrooms (2 doubles and 1 single), with the principal bedroom enjoying fitted wardrobes either side of the brick chimney.
Outside, the cottage benefits from a single garage plus off road parking for 2 cars. A notable feature of this home is the generous and very private garden that runs to the right hand side of the property. Divided into several secluded seating areas, there are lawns, decking, a tree house, summerhouse, greenhouse and workshop/shed plus an office and an abundance of mature trees, planting and shrubs.
